With them was a resident of the Garasu village of the Hajigabul district Vurgun Melikov, who organized the hunt for the Arabs.
The detainees were seized a hunting rifle and ammunition. The detainees were fined 2 thousand manats each, according to the Ministry of Environment report.
A similar case took place in Feb ruary in the Imishli region, where residents of Saudi Arabia and Qatar were engaged in falconry. Then their car fell into a canal, and two of the four passengers were killed.
Although the Ministry of Environment efforts, foreigners increasingly and freely come to the country and are engaged in illegal hunting.
This is organized by private companies owned by oligarchs or some ministers, who for high fees allow foreigners to hunt where they want and how they want.
In recent years, the family of the Ruler of Dubai Sheikh Mohammed, including himself, regularly visits Azerbaijan for falconry. -02D-
